About Me

My Photo
A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Protect Freedom of Conscience in Medicine

Conscience Protection


HT to Soutenus

"A campaign is underway to force Catholic hospitals and other health care institutions to perform or promote abortion. In response, the Abortion Non-Discrimination Act (ANDA) clarifies and strengthens conscience protection language found in current federal law (42 U.S.C. 238n). It expands the definition of the term “health care entity” and extends protection to entities refusing to provide coverage of, or pay for, abortion.

The current law (42 U.S.C. 238n) originally was enacted in 1996 in response to attempts by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to require every obstetrics and gynecology residency program to insure abortion training for their residents. See: Medical Training Non-Discrimination; Conscience Protection."
